Padres Hope Joe Musgrove and Nick Pivetta Return From Rehab

San Diego is hoping to get its right-handed starter duo out on rehab assignments this week while continuing to manage a thin staff. The Padres have been actively monitoring the physical progress of both pitchers as they work their way back to full match fitness.

Managing a limited pitching staff has presented challenges for the franchise throughout the ongoing stretch of the season. Joe Musgrove and Nick Pivetta represent crucial components of the team's pitching rotation plans moving forward.

Their potential return to the active roster is expected to bring much-needed stability and depth to the coaching staff options. Club management and medical personnel are coordinating closely to ensure both athletes complete their recovery without setbacks.

The upcoming rehab outings will serve as the final test before reevaluating their readiness for Major League Baseball action.
